A barefoot man in a saffron-orange dhoti and matching shawl with gold border, with a saffron turban, stands with palms pressed together in namaskar at a stage microphone. Behind him is a white-covered chair with red cushions against a blue curtain, and a bronze Nataraja murti wreathed in yellow flowers sits on a white-draped table. A large brass bowl of flower petals and water stands in front, with brass oil lamps and purple and yellow garlands along the stage edge.

A photograph of a speaker seated on a white-covered armchair on a stage, speaking into a standing microphone. He wears an orange turban, an orange robe with gold border, and a long dark rudraksha-style mala across his chest; he has long hair. Behind him stands a golden Nataraja murti framed by yellow flower garlands, beside a table draped in white with red and green floral garlands. A brass oil lamp sits in the foreground, and a blue curtain backs the stage. a person is seated and teaching a discourse, with the chalkboard and setting consistent with an inspirational talk.

A photograph of a figure standing on a raised stage in front of a dark blue draped curtain, hands pressed together in a greeting. He wears an orange saffron-coloured robe, an orange turban and a rudraksha mala. Behind him is an ornate dark wooden throne with orange cushions, flanked by two cream upholstered armchairs. White-draped tables hold yellow and orange floral arrangements, and a microphone stand stands in the foreground. A laptop sits on a wooden side table at right. Overhead, stage lights hang from a metal truss. The figure appears to be the Swamiji candidate, and the appearance cues of saffron robe, orange turban and rudraksha mala support that candidate, so the in-person candidate is marked probable.

A man in a sleeveless orange saffron garment with a matching orange shawl draped over one shoulder stands on a white cushioned platform on a stage, palms pressed together in namaste and smiling. Behind him is a gold ornately carved throne with an orange cloth and a microphone on a stand in front. Deep maroon velvet drapes with gold trim hang behind the stage, and a blank projection screen is on the left. Blue and red floor cushions sit at the platform edge.

A standing man in an orange saffron wrap stands on a small raised platform in front of a cream upholstered armchair with black carved wooden arms and backrest, placing his palms together in namaste with a smiling expression. He has long dark hair swept back and a small red tilak on his forehead. Behind him hangs a deep blue draped curtain. To the left, a white pedestal holds a vase of red, yellow and orange flowers beside a water bottle. A microphone on a stand stands to the right, and a red-and-white patterned rug lies on the floor. The image shows no other people. The man appears to be Swamiji (probable), identified by long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and the stage presentation, positioned as the speaker.

A man in saffron-orange robes stands on a stage in a hall with wood-panelled walls, pressing his palms together in namaste in front of his chest. He wears a long rudraksha mala and a saffron sash with gold borders. Beside him is an empty ornate gold-framed cream upholstered armchair set on a red patterned rug, with flower arrangements in vases and a small projector on a stool in front. A red curtain hangs at the right edge of the stage.

A photograph of a stage in an indoor hall. A standing man in an orange-brown robe with an orange shawl draped over his shoulders presses his palms together in front of a tan upholstered armchair with a microphone stand beside it. Behind the stage, a red-toned backdrop shows temple pillars, a dark curtain hangs at left, and a framed portrait on the right shows a seated figure in orange. Orange upholstered chairs, a peacock-feather arrangement in a vase, and a poster reading SHAKTHI YOGA on the left complete the set. A portrait on the right shows a figure in orange robes seated in meditation pose. The standing man's face and build are not clearly visible, so the identity cannot be confirmed from appearance.
